Confirming Info

Hello,

 

I received an email today asking me to "confirm my info," or, else I guess I can't use PayPal anymore? But when I go to do so, and try to enter my social security number, it only allows four spaces. It seems weird to not use the entire number. Nine spaces for ITIN, but it's not accepting that either. Now what? Do I declare as "individual" or "sole proprietor?"

 

Thanks for any help,

 

Matt

Hi @panzerkunst,

 

Thank you for your post and welcome to the Community Forum!

 

Regarding the Business Type, you can choose 'Sole Proprietorship' if you have a business registered in your name and that you manage by yourself. Instead, you can use individual when you sell online but without a registered business. 

 

I hope this helps!
